Sylar says he knows LGD was gonna kick him anyway, that's why he prematurely left the team.
Problem lied within xiao8 in my eyes though. For a few months already, his performance is really nowhere near the lower average

hahaha jesus i love this guy
dear god,Navi fanboi everywhere,it's a cool interview but the comment section are filled with Navi fanboi going fullforce just because LoH mentioned the fountain hook thing

Most people will love Na'Vi until another entertaining-to-watch teams rises up, Alliance is good but they pick always the same thing and never do anything that crazy... at least that's how I feel it.

Just read the LoH interview and OH MY GOD he really is butt-hurt, or is he just being sarcastic? Maybe I misunderstood something but I get the feeling he is kind of regretting leaving the team.

I really like the fact that he calls pretty all teams "trash", which is so true when you think about it. Alliance played with the same heroes for ages, no one really adapted or figured out that banning them = you can beat them (well Puppey did...), Chinese teams are pathetic, etc.

I didn't really watch TI2 so someone give me some insight, how come Asian teams conquered that tournament playing like that?

chinese teams in TI2 used to be more flawless when its comes to ganking and clash, that's why they conquered the international 2012

That's not true. Alliance can pick heroes that other teams are afraid of doing that. Like Night Stalker pick for example at TI3, Phantom Assassin + Wisp combo was another good pick they did in their last tournament.

Alliance, Zenith and Orange are teams that you can expect some crazy picks.

P.S. Top interview from LightOfHeaven, great guy. Good to know that he mentioned Vici, the team has great potential.
Top comment.

M: You once said that when you lose you feel happy for your opponent.
LoH: I feel happy about the fact that I see people who are doing something better than me and I have someone to learn from.
Edit: A big lol at some comments at Liquid.

i want to see yaphets/PIS in dota 2 competitive scene so badly
Magicphoenix
Me not. He's mentally a little pampered kid. Left his team that he created after ragequit in a scrim lol

The last games I watched from the Chinese being "the best" was IG vs LGD.int, and tbh even when I got impressed a lot by them back then, now that I saw them play against western teams it was like "oh right, they just know how to play each other since they are both teams that just farm for 100 minutes".

Gonna try to watch some TI2 games anyways, see if I can notice what you said.

Night Stalker pick was bad, they did not even win by their own plays, Dendi explained on an interview how they had that game in their pocket and they basically gave it away by fighting as 5 on bot T2 during the first night. There are a lot of "good heroes" that are not picked at all, and there is a reason for that, people knows how to defeat them, either that or they are not good enough.

I remember watching Wisp + Mortred on some games, but iirc they were mostly on random tournaments against lower tier teams, so I wouldn't really give them any praise for it, any top team could pick some shit against worse teams and still come ahead. All I say is Alliance isn't that fun to watch because their basic line up is always the exact same thing. Even LoH points out how dumb every team was being that they didn't even try to adapt, you had a top team picking from a pool of 5~9 heroes, which of course are all top tier, why don't you ban those and try to pick based on their picks instead of getting your usual line up + banning random shit they are not gonna use anyways?

Again, just to clarify, not saying Alliance is bad, they are indeed one of the best 3 teams in the world right now (I still feel like watching Orange vs Alliance) but I still find them boring to watch, all they did was find an epic line up that no one adapted to, except for one team that gave away 2 games by themselves.
Tetsu_old
My mistake, I shouldn't have say "was another good pick". You said "they pick always the same thing" that's why I mentioned NS and not if he was good or bad pick.
They have picked Phantom Assassin not on a random tournament (G-1 league) and not against low tier team (Orange) too and she was the best hero in the game. They didn't even picked Wisp to buff Phantom Assassin on that game.

Still I believe that Alliance doesn't pick the same thing (except the heroes for Bulldog) if you compare their picks to other teams and definitely not as boring as the half of the teams that were at TI3.
And before anyone call me an Alliance boy, I would rather watch teams 4 Friends + Chrille or First Departure than Alliance lawl.
dNextGen
i'd rather watch Kaipi

the only team that pick space cow on tourneys
Tetsu_old
Kappaipi is becoming every week more lileable to me with those members changes lol. SingSing should kick EE now and win TI4.
dNextGen
no shit,he'll definitely win TI4 and do this to the traitor Lod[A]

Maybe they have inside info, but I read the original thread and it doesn't say anything like that at all

(Sylar intends to leave LGD, while rOtk is "going home", implying his leave from DK)

lol found this pic on iceiceice's stream today.

Too bad it's rotk who is leaving. Always liked this player. Hope he can join a good team.
BurNIng changing position again? I hope it will work well like it did the last time he did that.
DK can become a very powerful with 2 of the best carries in the world in their roster, Sylar and BurNIng can even change position depending on their picks. If they can find the right chemistry they can become the great DK team they were in Dota 1.
Magicphoenix
rotK out of DK really is a tragedy for every DK fan :(
And BurNIng to offlane position :(
I trust his skills and I know he'll be a friggin' good Offlaner...but jesus christ...a BurNIng that's not a 1-position anymore .. :/
Same thing when X!! became a support role.
Many DK-fanboy tears were shed
dNextGen
more Kaipi talk pls

they have SingSing-senpai on the team now

2GD must be mad now hahahha
Magicphoenix
I don't know what's the big deal about SingSing joining Kaipi. It was already announced about 1 and 1/2 months ago

Only question is who their 5th will be
Roxas
Amazing set.

Pizzicato

Magicphoenix
Did'cha buy that one Roxas? cool stuff
Also yup @Pizzicato, and the strongest core of Zenith still remains
Roxas

Yea, I thought about it before buying, but well, this costs 6€ and the old one (that I have obtained via trades) costs 8.50, so :D
Wishy

Roxas
Wisp announcer
Backfire
That nyx set is scrub-tier btw.
Soulclenz

Wtb patch with GLaDOS announcer and new sets.

He was playing with that team for about 2 days. He even streamed some games with that team.
I don't think he will join them though.
